England is the only country I know that has 4 days for Easter (The province 
Alsace does too as it takes Good Friday from the Schleurs and Easter Monday 
from the French) and 2 days for Christmas.


Not true......we in Canada have four days for Easter too.....trouble is 
you have to be in a union to get the Friday AND Monday.....regular 
workers don't get the Monday.  And as for Christmas....everyone gets two 
days, 25th and 26th....of if either or both days are on a weekend, the 
following Monday is a holiday.  We're bitching to get a day's holiday in 
February.....such a long run between Jan. 1st and Easter.  We even get a 
day off on the Monday around May 21 for Queen Victoria for Pete's 
sake.....not for our current monarch....but Queen Victoria.  Strange 
country Canada is.
